Cher is "magical [and] electric" (The Hollywood Reporter), Winona Ryder "enchanting and funny" (The New York Times) and Christina Ricci "adorable and engaging" (Variety) in this hilarious and heartwarming portrait of a 1960's single-parent family trying to adjust to each other's growing independence.
Charlotte (Ryder) is an adolescent girl torn between her blossoming passions for a handsome caretaker (Michael Schoeffling)…and her desire to be a nun (a tough calling for a girl who's Jewish).Complicating her already precarious teen angst is a little sister (Ricci), a determined would-be swimmer she affectionately calls "fishhead", and their mother (Cher) , a non-traditional, sexy, flamboyant woman who relocates them to a new town every time she causes a hint of scandal -- which is often.But even as their personal styles clash, these three incredibly different individuals begins to see that nothing -- not even a life-threatening tragedy -- can tear apart the bonds of family.
